BOILER FOR CULINARY PURPOSES.

Specification of Letters Patent No. 39,077, dated June 30, 1863.

To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, P. L. SUINE, ofShirleysburg, in the county of Hunting don and State Pennsylvania, haveinvented a new and useful Improvement in Boilers for Culinary Purposes;and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exactdescription of the same, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, making a part of this specification in which Figure 1, is aplan or top view of my invention. Fig. 2, a vertical central section ofthe same.

Similar letters of reference indicate cor responding parts in the twofigures.

This invention relates to a new and improved boiler for cook stoves, andconsists in having a tube or steam pipe secured within the boiler, theupper end of the former being about on a level with the top of thelatter, and the lower end extending to the bottom of the boiler andcommunicating with the external air. By this arrangement, the steam fromthe boiler instead of escaping into theapartment as hitherto, is made,when the boiler is fitted on the stove and the cooking process going on,to escape down the steam pipe into the flue of the stove.

To enable those skilled in the art, to fully understand and construct myinvention, I will proceed to describe it.

A, represents a boiler which may be constructed in any of the knownforms, and provided as usual with a shoulder a to rest on the top of thestove; the lower part b of the boiler fitting within the stove as shownclearly in Fig. 2, a portion of the stove top being shown in blue.

lVithin the boiler A, there is a tube or pipe B. This tube may beattached to the side of the boiler, and extends from its upper part ortop down to its bottom, as shown clearly in Fig. 2. The upper end of thetube or pipe B, communicates with the interior of the boiler by means ofperforations 0, and the tube or pipe near its lower end communicateswith the external air by means of a hole (Z shown in Fig. 2. This hole(Z, when the boiler is fitted in a hole in the top plate of the stove,is below said plate. By this arrangement it will be seen that when thelid 6 of the boiler is adjusted upon it, and the cooking process isgoing on, the steam in the boiler will escape through the perforations 0in the upper end of the tube or pipe, and will pass down said tube orpipe, and pass through the hole (Z and into the flue of the stove. Hencethe steam and odor from the cooking vict-uals will not as hithertoescape into the compartment, and render the kitchen and frequently otheradjoining rooms, disagreeable and unwholesome.

Having thus described my invention; I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent As an improved article of manufacture a boiler forculinary purposes, constructed with an internal tube or pipecommunieating at its upper end with the interior of the boiler andprovided at its lower end with a hole or opening, so that said tube orpipe, when the boiler is fitted in a hole in the top plate of the stove,will be below the St06 plate, and from a communication between the tubeor pipe and the fiue of the stove, substantially as and for the purposeherein set forth.
